Allow me to reintroduce myself...

My name is Tony, I moved here a few months ago from Indianapolis, IN. I've been a member here since 2004 however, because I was born here originally. I'm 28, and have been into cars my whole life. I've been involved with NHRA drag racing my entire life, and import cars since 1999. I am a professional photographer, and I shoot mainly automotive and fashion. I've had work featured in the magazines in my signature and have only been shooting a year and a half.

I've met some really cool people so far that are members here, luckily they've allowed me to tag along on a few shoots and meets. Looking forward to meeting a lot more TR people!

Past rides (worth mentioning)...

91 Integra LS (bought in 98 ) LS/VTEC, sparcos, 17" wheels, yeah, about as cool as the import scene was in 99

97 ITR, bone stock.

02 RSX-S: literally every DC5-R part being imported in 03 I had on that bitch. bronze (then black) Mugen MF-10s, etc. Made 223whp (n/a w/cams) then made 343whp (10psi/pump) and 403whp (14psi/race gas). Hondata K-Pro tuned, by me.

02 BMW 330Ci: staggered 19" Hartge Classic's, UUC suspension, MtechII bumpers, AC-Schnitzer rear spoiler, black center roof, wheels, grille, headlights.

87 BMW 325iS: fresh satin black paint, el-cheapo sportmax wheels, some random brand coilovers, HID conversion. Had M50 swap, and Hx35 waiting in storage to go on, sold car and motor before I moved here. The goal was to just make a retarded fast POS old school BMW...on the cheap.

96 Civic Coupe: (current DD) skunk2 coils, spoon lower tie, 16" polished slips, Si tails, SiR look grille and headlights. ebayR lip. I have no desire to spend money on this thing, but I'll keep it til the wheels fall off.

Next? AP1 or AP2.

I'll have to dig up pics of everything, but I've got em... might be up tonight.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
